Whitehaven Beach by Helicopter

the iconic one

THE SETTING

Whitehaven is world-famous for a reason. Seven kilometres of pure silica sand so fine it squeaks underfoot, and the mesmerising swirl of Hill Inlet where turquoise water and white sand blend like paint. There is no road here. You reach it by boat or, for the ultimate arrival, by helicopter.

This is the once-in-a-lifetime backdrop. Just the two of you on an untouched stretch of beach, the Coral Sea at your feet, and an aerial view on the way in that you will never forget. If you want your elopement to feel truly breathtaking, this is it.

Why here

01

A low-impact permit

Whitehaven is protected national park, so a low-impact permit is required. We arrange it as part of your booking.

02

No fresh flowers on the sand

To keep the beach pristine, fresh flowers are not allowed on the sand. We style beautifully with permitted alternatives instead.

03

Helicopter transfer included

The scenic helicopter transfer is part of our premium Whitehaven package, so the whole experience is handled end to end.

Access & permits

Whitehaven sits inside protected national park with no road access. You arrive by boat or scenic helicopter, and a low-impact permit is required. We handle it all as part of your package, so everything is arranged end to end.
